Probably the most praised indie game ever is making it’s way to the Game Boy Advance… sort of. Thanks to the efforts of homebrew programmer RavenWorks, Cave Story will be ported to the GBA for use with emulators or on Flashcarts. And to make things even cooler, the project has the blessing of Cave Story’s original creator, Pixel.

RavenWorks will be keeping us informed of his progress on his LiveJournal blog. You can head over there now and check out the proof-of-concept rom that RavenWorks showed Pixel in order to get access to the game’s original source code. Can’t wait to see how this turns out and I can’t wait to play Cave Story on the go. If ever there was a game made for portability, this is it.

Also, while searching for images to use for this post I came across some nice Cave Story fanart. Check it out:
